In filing a full chisel chain I learned the importance of keeping the leading point of the cutter needle sharp. When it starts to round inward it has lost its edge. It doesn't matter how sharp the cutter face is if that point is not there. If it gets really bad it is nearly imposable to get back because you want to quit filing before it is truly sharp. I often give it a couple strokes after each tank of gas just to keep it. Dirt in the bark is the biggest culprit. Good advise. Good video. Good job.

Doesn't matter how many strokes you take on each cutter, what matters is the proper adjustment filing of the rakers after you get all the cutters sharp. Bucking Billy Ray proves that in one of his sharpening videos.
@24cupsandcounting3 жыл бұрын
Truth, use a raker gauge to adjust for tooth length, all cutters do not have to be equal, it is a waste of time.

It does and it doesn’t. If your average left vs right cutter lengths are way off due to poor technique the saw will pull.

Some raker gouges use other cutters near the raker you are filing. A more accurate way of adjusting the raker associated with the cutter you are filing is to use the Husky raker adjusting tool that only uses the cutter you are adjusting the raker for. Otherwise you may have to keep all the cutters the same length so you can use the tool that uses the other nearby cutters for adjusting the raker.
@iffykidmn81703 жыл бұрын
@@1d1hamby Agreed! Carlton years back made a similar gauge as the Husky and the saw shops would throw one in for free when buying Carlton chain. The raker is also ramped when viewed from the side the gauge she is using that sits flat on the chain files the raker flat instead of being ramped.

A great instructional videp, thank you. Just had this happen, because my rakers / depth gages had to be re-profiled: After using the 2-in-1 sharpener a few times, I could no longer bore cut; the bar would jump out of the kerf. The rakers had become flat on top, and I had to round them off to the original profile. Now, it bore cuts like new.

Coloring the cutting surfaces on the chain cutters is an excellent idea! I've struggled with determining visually if a cutter is properly sharpened during the filing process, due to the small size of the cutting surfaces, & poor light on the cutting surfaces (even sunlight doesn't illuminate the surfaces very well, as the chain cutter top plate "shelters" the cutting surfaces from sunlight), so it is difficult for me to see these critical areas of the chain cutters. I'll try coloring the chain cutting surfaces next time. Great idea!

Chain manufacturers love you to find the shortest cutter.... then file all cutting teeth to that length....However in practice that is not necessary. Try just fixing that cutter...you’ll see... Great presentation! Chain sharpening is a great topic, especially for folks that “live by the saw”. Many forget to address chain maintenance: for instance-did you pinch the chain at some point... is it bend now(?), which may effect how it runs in the bar. Or how worn is the bar, effecting how the chain will cut, no matter how great you sharpened it...love your professional demeanor! Have a great week!

Hi Felixia. I think that this is more of a manufacturer recommended filing process. Red Man here, is recommending Buckin Billy Ray. What Buckin would say, besides Be Kind, would be to have the experience for yourself. There are several sharpening myths out there, like maintaining the cutter length all the same and taking the same number of strokes. Buckin has done many videos on the subject of sharpening, and some where he’ll do what seems to be crazy things like filing all the teeth on one side short, while the other side are long. What I’ve learned from watching his fun antics, is that what really matters is this: The size of each cutter doesn’t matter, as long as you have filed its depth gage / raker accordingly. You also need to maintain the original profile of the side plate, the ‘C’ aka “Get the Gullet”. So, it boils down to this. Get the gullet, make the tooth sharp, don’t forget your working corner, and hit your rakers with a raker gauge. It’s really just that simple. There are also other things like flipping the bar for even wear, and dressing it up every now and then. When you think about it, it’s a lot of work to keep the cutters all at the same length. Just hit a nail, or a rock, and there go several cutting teeth. That’s really what the raker gauge is for, all you need to do is get them back in shape, and reset that depth of cut with the gauge. Please go watch some of his sharpening videos. I promise you’ll find them very knowledgeable and informative.

Not a chainsaw guy, but as a woodworker I disagree. Changing the geometry of the chain & cutters will absolutely change how it cuts and handles. If you were like me, you might not be aware of the difference, but it will be there. If you know what you’re doing, it may be the way you want to cut for some reason (more or less aggressive, more speed or less chatter, etc.) I think most people are better off with a consistent profile, as designed. Not everyone, just most people.

Now there is a very small handful of people who have put out great how to sharpen videos. It is no easy task to take on. I'll give you that. I like the enlarged chain for teaching. I have not seen that before, well done on that new way to demonstrate. Sharpening takes much practice to master. There are many that believe it's something that can not be taught on a video but must be passed down by mentors. There are masters of filing that can teach this ART. There are people that are not.

I always heard about the Stihl 2 in 1 file, but you were the first to explain that it sharpens the tooth and raker at the same time. Another thing that is important is if you are running Stihl Rapid Super full chisel chain is you have to have all of the points there and sharp. I had problems with saws cutting crooked and some of the tips were damaged, or not sharpened enough. If you are not afraid to touch them they are not sharp enough. 😂

The relationship between the tooth and raker is most important imho... IF a guy or gal hits metal or rock etc and takes out a few teeth then sharpen those teeth and set each raker to each tooth ... Will the chain be as SMOOTH as each cutter the same length (ie ground chain) ? No. But in the field situation it works ... Hand filing is great however after a few hand sharpenings a trip to the grinder will restore geometry with great precision. Filing plates, 2 in 1 and the magnetic guide used in this video are great to “touch-up” a chain and restore a very sharp edge and you can get many sharpenings if you file just as the chain begins to dull ... Very few humans (I wood say 1 in 10000) can “outsharpen” a machine by hand 👍

@@aldredske6197 Al ... If you have had 40 yrs logging and filing by hand only everyday that’s a lot of time to get muscle memory / technique dialed in , as compared to a guy / gal who is a firewood cutter / tree service / arborist who may not be using the saw 40hrs + a week ... maybe compare to playing an instrument - more practice , better results . That being said , you wood be amazed at the number of arborist who cannot sharpen a chain worth squat ... For these 9999 out of 10000 folk a “trueing” to restore the geometry precisely to .0005 or better may be fortuitous for them after a few touch-ups. In fact if we are talking sqr/sqr chain as opposed to the sqr/rnd featured in FL’s video most guys/gals own a silvey or simington grinder to do these chains although , again , there are exceptional square file hand sharpeners out there that can equal or exceed - I’m not one of them 😀

@@tangydiesel1886 yah, hate cutting thru dirty bark on logs. If I HAVE to, I will plunge cut on the cleanest part, and let the chain pull the chips past the dirty part on the bottom of the bar. never pull the mud thru the cut....or you’re filing again. dull chainsaw exhausting, sharp chainsaw joyous. cheers!

It's a good thing to mention the number on the link. I didn't know what it kind of information it was. Is the number code also on Oregon and Husqvarna chains?

I have an electric bench grinder manufactured by Oregon. I can’t find the specs for my Stihl chain in the manual. Basically the manual gives settings for the Oregon replacement chains, and they do not make replacement chains for Stihl. At least I can’t find any near me. Have you used a bench grinder and what settings do you use for the Stihl chains?

So tell me do you use 30° top plate angle and 60° top plate cutting angle when falling big trees.

+Femalelumberjack Hi Felixia, Is the file suppose to slowly turn during filing or fixed so it does not rotate? Ours has 1 rotating and the other side doesn't. I think it has to do with the spiral cut on the file cut only contacts on an angle in sharpening on one side causing it to turn and perpendicular from other side so can't rotate turn. but that does my head in.

You suggested leaving the hook on the tooth so that it can grab the fibers in protection chaps or pants, does it serve any other purpose? What if the chain doesn't have the hook anymore? Does it cut more aggressively...such as a skip tooth?
